A pale yellow lager with a thin white head. In aroma, light grassy malt with light corn adjunct notes, faint German hops, light. In mouth, a light sweet grassy malt with light honey and corn notes, light German hops, decent for the style. 0.75$ can at store close to my hotel.

I lived in Panama off and on for ~8 years and tried all of the local beers. Typically the local beers are not all that good and this is no exception. They taste watered down and usually leave a slightly bitter and yeasty aftertaste. I think that this is actually somewhat smoother than the other local brand; Atlas & Balboa. Not a great beer but I could drink it if it is nice and cold. I prefer to always get the beer in a bottle if possible. The taste is much better than in the cans.

Shared from a 12oz can into a nonic glass, thanks Greg. It poured a clear, straw colour with thick sudsy white foam and lace. Aromas and flavours of corn, corn, and more corn. Light body, strong carbonation, residual corn syrup sweetness all the way through to the sticky aftertaste. Glad to have the chance to try it, but it didn’t taste good at all.

Canned, 0.355l. Clear straw color with small frothy white head and sparkling apperance. Aroma of hay, light bread, cooked vegetables, dust and some citrus. Taste starts light fruity or yeasty acidic, followed by light sweet adjunct malt and finished slightly bitter. Light body, thin texture and average carbonation in palate. You will certainly stay sober with Soberana, no mattter how many cans you drink...

UPDATED: AUG 6, 2013 Horrible. Does Panama know what they are missing? Atlas, balboa, panana, and now this. Honestly, it’s like a watered down Miller lite....this doesn’t even taste like cheap corn like the others, more like a seltzer with stale hops. It’s there even alcohol in this?

Pretty trashy. Panama beer is still the worst, but this is worse than Atlas and almost at the lowly level of Panama. You would have to get this to freezing point before it became drinkable. Can from the corner store in Casco Viejo.
